058682 - Miller Teflon Liner for .047-1/16 Aluminum Wire

Miller 058682 Teflon Liner Overview

The Miller 058682 is a specialized Teflon liner designed to facilitate the smooth feeding of soft welding wires, particularly aluminum. Unlike standard steel wound liners, this conduit is manufactured from high-quality Teflon (PTFE), which offers an extremely low coefficient of friction. This characteristic is critical when feeding soft alloys that are prone to buckling, shaving, or bird-nesting inside the cable assembly.

This liner is engineered to accommodate wire diameters from .047 inches (1.2 mm) up to 1/16 inches (1.6 mm). It is a genuine Miller Electric OEM component, ensuring precise dimensional fit and compatibility with specific Miller MIG guns and push-pull systems. The use of a Teflon liner is a standard requirement for industrial aluminum welding procedures to maintain consistent arc stability and wire delivery speeds.

Proper maintenance of the wire feeding path is essential for high-quality aluminum welds. The 058682 liner protects the soft wire from abrasion against the gun cable's internal surfaces, preventing the generation of metal shavings that can clog the liner or contact tip. It is recommended to inspect and replace liners regularly in high-production environments to prevent feeding issues.
